JAKARTA - After the success of the release of the single "drop dead" last April, Olivia Rodrigo announced another new single, "The Cure", which will be released this week.

The song is confirmed to be the second single from his third studio album, "You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love".

Through his Instagram account, Rodrigo shared the artwork of the latest single, which features him wearing a pink top with a finger playing a red rope game that forms the writing "The Cure".

"(This song) is my favorite song on the album and one of the favorite songs I've ever made. I can't wait for you all to hear it soon*," wrote Rodrigo, quoting the caption of the upload, Wednesday, May 20.

Interestingly, the launch of "The Cure" coincides with the celebration of World Goth Day. The choice of this time is not just a coincidence. The song's title is suspected to be a direct tribute to The Cure, a British goth rock band led by Robert Smith.

Rodrigo himself previously stated that the band known for the song "Friday I'm in Love" was one of his biggest idols.

The mutual admiration between the two is no longer a secret. Robert Smith has praised Rodrigo's musicality, even appearing as a surprise at Rodrigo's Glastonbury stage performance last year.

In addition, the full album “You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love” is scheduled to be released globally on June 12.

The presence of the single "The Cure" this week also serves as a sweet opening and proof of the musical exploration of an Olivia Rodrigo.
